Canary Islands.

Lanzarote is an island known for its

village that has been transformed into a resort town. Now it is known for its
nightlife, with a wide range of bars, clubs, discos, pubs and restaurants.

Playa Blanca is a resort located on the
southern tip of the island. The most famous beaches in the area are Playa
Dorada and Playa Flamingo. Climb up to El Faro in order to enjoy views towards

What to Eat

Some of the most traditional dishes from
the Canary Islands are papas arrugadas and seafood. Papas arrugadas
are wrinkly potatoes boiled in sea water that are served with spicy mojo
picón sauce and a green, olive oil-based sauce with garlic. A typical
breakfast is gofio, a maize porridge. Try the pucheros and potajes
stews that are made using local vegetables, lentils and meat.

on this island. Two of the most famous beaches are the scenic Playa de las
Cucharas and Playa del Papagayo, a beach known for its white sands and clear
waters. Head to the north of the island if you are into water sports, including
surf and windsurf. Do not miss El Golfo, a natural cove with black sands formed
after a volcanic eruption. Famara beach, with its golden sands and pink cliffs,
is located on the northwestern coast of the island and is an ideal destination
for those who want to relax.

What to Visit

There are many natural landmarks that are

National Park. Ride a camel around the base of the park and then climb to the
top, where you will find a restaurant with views towards the island. The
restaurant is known for its dishes cooked above a geothermal hole, the remnants
of a volcano that partially destroyed the island.

There are many other landmarks that you can

caves were formed by volcanic lava. The Jameos del Agua set of caves have a
large underground lake, and one of the grottoes has been transformed into an
Auditorium.
